(b)another person (“the new owner”) acquires the relevant interest in the whole or a part of the related agricultural land.

(2)For the purposes of subsection (1)(b), it is immaterial whether the relevant interest is acquired by transfer, by operation of law or otherwise.

(b)if the acquisition occurs during a chargeable period, is entitled only to an appropriate part of any writing-down allowance for that period.

(b)if the acquisition occurs during a chargeable period, is entitled only to an appropriate part of any writing-down allowance for that period.
